The Norton Awards are bestowed annually on individuals and nations that have demonstrated outstanding excellence and achievement in the micronational world during the previous year. The honours are awarded by an impartial panel composed of representatives from nations that recognize and celebrate Emperor Norton I Day as an official holiday.

The Norton Awards are given every year on January 8th, the anniversary of the death of Emperor Norton I, Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico. This is in conjunction with the annual celebration of the first intermicronational holiday, Emperor Norton I Day, in recognition of Emperor Norton I as the first micronationalist.
